Many individual users who use the protocol, use it poorly. Predominantly the result of the lack of distinguishing indicators that alert of inadequate usage.

A quantified metric to guage the probability of association when withdrawing would help guide individuals to use the protocol adequately. This could be approached in one of two ways:

Simple probability computation of subsequent deposits
- 1/N_s
Delta time to the power of the probability of subsequent deposits, multiplied by the probability of unspent deposits
- Δt ^(1/N_s) * 1/N_u

Computing the inverse of either to derive the anonymity score. Simple probability computations of unspent deposits could also be used to benchmark each anonymity set. Therefore allowing individuals to know which pools have the highest entropy before depositing.
